Two decks with the shuffle point set before a new deal begins with less than 26 cards remaining in the “shoe”. You will hear a “shuffle” sound and the chat box will announce the shuffle.

Yes, you will be dealt one card after the dealer selects “play”. You can then take more cards if you want to improve your hand.

Yes. A “Split” option button will appear instead of an automatic card. Make sure you have enough chips left at the table to match your total bet (blind + raise).

Yes, and if you have a pair you may split if you have sufficient chips to match the blind bet.

No, the player/dealer options are limited to choosing which hole card to show, folding after the betting round and hitting any soft hand.

No, but if you want to split, raise during the betting round, just remember to reserve enough chips to cover the second hand.

The software version currently limits split to one. The basic rules leave it up to the host to determine the number of splits allowed. Beware, since the player/dealer makes the decision to play with no information about potential splits (other than a raised 10 value), this tactic could be very costly when it is your turn “on the button”.

The software moves sufficient chips to cover each bet to the center of the table as the bet is made. If the dealer runs out of chips, players will be given the option to “pass” or set a blind and later on to raise. If the dealer plays any winnings will be used to payoff uncovered bets. The payoff order is blind bets paid in table order (clockwise from the button), then raised bets in the full amount starting again in table order.

STRATEGY NOTE: While it may appear foolish to make a bet which could be won by the dealer but not paid if won by the player, in tournament play it may make sense for a chip leader to take the risk to force the dealer out of the game. BJX is like poker in that each hand is situational, and the proposition between the dealer and each player is unique.

That’s a 30 second clock which turns from white to red as the time runs down.

The computer makes a “default move” for you, depending on the situation:

• Players will have the SMALL BLIND bet.
• The Dealer’s SECOND dealt card is revealed.
• Players hand will be CHECKED.
• The Dealer will automatically PLAY.
• Player will STAY.
• Dealer hand will hit until 17 or better (soft hand waits for timeout to pay off).

1. Should any player at a table leave lose their connection or close their browser, the game will freeze. The only solution is to close the table and start a new game.
2. Some positions show an extra number on the won/lost message. However the chip counts are correct and the correct amount is shown in the chat box.
